Edited on Mon Dec-08-03 07:45 AM by khephra
I started out a Kerry man until the war and then I swiched to Dean, so that's one for me.

4. Zero
I lurked and listened at DU for a while.

Any fanatical supporters one way or another has earned a place on my "Ignore" list.

5. I wanted Clark drafted.
So I ain't changing horses now. :)

I'm just not that vocal in my support. Except to my real-life friends, who I have made Clark supporters.

6. Started with Edwards
then found I liked Kerry. (though Edwards is still on my list)

Now I am liking Gephardt more and he has just about moved into a tie for first.

7. Voted 1, but I'm not sure it qualifies. Gore dropped out, so did I switch?
You tell me. Anyway, I didn't lose any estime for Gore, but I an happy and proud as can be to be a Clark supporter.

11. Not really switched....supported nobody, then Dean, now nobody...
I will enthusiastically support whoever the nominee is (yes, even Leiberman, although that is unlikely to happen). I'm just sad to say that none of the candidates motivates me in the least bit. I'm very disheartened.

We have so much history and so many mistakes to learn from, as have been made by both parties. And still I see each of the candidates making the same mistakes.

12. Never
Studied the field for awhile before a final decision, but always leaned towards Dean from the start. Dean and his campaign has only grown stronger in my estimation, leaving little reason to switch.

13. I started with Kerry, went to Dean and now I wish Kucinich could
get ahead. I think that Kucinich would do what is right for the middle class. I like Dean but I think he will not do what he should for the middle class. They say he is liberal, but he is really conservative on economic matters. However, I will vote for any democrat in 2004.

17. If people like what Dennis is thinkin, you should join
In fact one of the reasons why I prefer Dennis K to Dean is economic matters, yep I am one of those evil tax n spend liberals you hear about :D.

14. Dean to Kucinich
Was for Dean because of the war, but sometime after Kucinich got in, and the that whole thing between Dean and the DLC and the Dean magic started wearing off. I realized Kucinich was advocating all the thigs I did so he was just a better fit.

20. moved twice
Started with Kerry.....his campaign never seemed to catch fire....then, looked closely at Edwards....again, no fire....now, between Dean and Clark.....but, think Iowa and NH will seal it for Dean.....and, bottom line is....we must send Bush home.
